Capturing the electric short fiction energy that led Robert E. Howard to be one of the top fantasy writers of the century, with exclusive serialized e Book stories starring Conan, Solomon Kane, and more by many of today’s top writers in fantasy and sword-and-sorcery.
While on an intelligence mission in Central Asia, British Lieutenant John Stock encounters Francis Xavier Gordon, the renowned adventurer better known as El Borak. Called ‘The Swift, ‘ the Texan gunslinger is as at home in the Pamir Mountains as the snow leopards that inhabit them. Times are desperate, Gordon reveals: the legendary city of Lamakan, ruled by the mysterious Queen Zohra, is not only very real, but in danger.
Surrounded by encroaching Russian troops, Lamakan faces an existential threat. With Stock desperate to learn more about Queen Zohra, and Gordon desperate to free her people, the two must venture forth into a city under siege and hope to save it. Facing fire from all sides, it is up to the fearless El Borak to rescue the mythical Lamakan from total devastation.
